Therapist Overview
Hi! I’m Jackie and my superpower is connecting with young people. I’ve been working with children and teens from across the globe for over 20 years. As an educator, I became attuned to the developmental stages that shape a young person’s feelings and behavior. Now, as a therapist, I’m thrilled to connect with young people and their families in a way that strengthens their resilience and relationships as they grow. I received my MA in Counseling from NYU and a post-graduate certificate in Play Therapy from Antioch University where I discovered a passion for Play Therapy, Child-Parent Relationship Therapy, and Sand Tray Therapy. Our youth are experiencing unprecedented levels of anxiety and depression. For many, grief and isolation are ongoing and devastating. I specialize in helping young people identify strengths and develop long-lasting and effective coping skills using a variety of creative and expressive techniques. I also specialize in trauma, ADHD, and screen addiction. I also work closely with families to help identify opportunities to improve relationships at home using techniques that are grounded in the most advanced studies about how young minds grow and develop. Together, we can identify strategies to overcome difficult obstacles, transitions, or situations that negatively impact your child’s behavior and feelings.
